UIA Expert Martha Giannakopoulou reveals how “Gent Knapt Op launched a series of open calls (waves) and employed an intense communication strategy. The project thus managed, even during this turbulent and difficult time to sign up 90 participants and homes for the project and is currently in the process of renovation. This journal focuses on the stepping stones in achieving the first renovations of homes in such a difficult time as well as the challenges met through that process.”
